david perlich Webboard User Reg: 02-03-2005 Posts: 171 Loc: dfw tx Offline	my pup is about 4 almost 5 months old now and has started teething. My question is what can i do with him now that he is teething. Or is it basically about 2 months off training, aside from tracking and ob work. Just currious.

But certainly be careful of any heavy bite work at this stage.

To me it is just not worth doing anymore than that. All it takes is one time of associating BAD pain with the bite and you have a serious, if not permanent problem. If the dog is worth a crap he will be just fine with a couple of months off <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I just get them as crazy as possible and put the rag in their mouth. Then they run off the field, usually shaking their heads. Soooo cute! I am smarter than my dog, your just not.
